Our business has evolved quickly. Today, North America is at the center of our growth, our leadership team is expanding, and the way we partner with the business needs to evolve alongside it. We already have talented HRBPs across North America, China, and India. What we haven't had is a single global leader who can bring them together around a shared vision of what world‐class business partnering looks like. This role is an opportunity to build that vision.The OpportunityAs Head of HRBP, you'll partner closely with the VP People and our executive team to help ensure our organization evolves alongside our business. You'll influence how teams are structured, where we invest in talent, how leaders grow, and how we prepare the company for what's next. This isn't a role centered on running HR programs; it's about helping leaders make better organizational decisions and building an HRBP function that becomes one of the company's most trusted strategic partners.What success looks likeSuccess in this role isn't measured by the number of programs launched but by how the business works with People. Leaders seek your perspective early because they trust your judgment. HRBPs across North America, China, and India operate with a shared standard of excellence while adapting thoughtfully to local business needs.



Organizational decisions are informed by stronger data, better talent insights, and clearer thinking. Most importantly, the HRBP function becomes known as a team that helps the business move faster, make better decisions, and build stronger leaders.What you'll ownShape and lead our global HRBP function—defining the operating model, standards, and expectations for business partnering across regions.Partner directly with executives and senior business leaders on organizational design, workforce planning, leadership effectiveness, succession planning, and talent investment.Lead and coach our North American HRBP team while providing functional leadership across HRBPs in China and India, building a consistent, high‐performing global practice.Guide leaders through organizational change, helping diagnose challenges, evaluate trade‐offs, and build teams that can support the company's long‐term growth.Develop practical frameworks, career paths, and coaching that strengthen HRBP capability and create consistency across regions without losing local relevance.Ensure that People is viewed as a strategic business partner that enables growth, not simply a support function.Who you areYou naturally connect people decisions to business outcomes. You enjoy solving ambiguous problems and are comfortable building the path while walking it—you gather context, form thoughtful opinions, and help leaders move forward with confidence. You build trust through sound judgment, curiosity, and practical advice. Senior leaders value your perspective because you understand both the people side and the business side of every decision. You're comfortable having candid conversations, challenging assumptions respectfully, and helping leaders navigate difficult organizational questions. You're equally comfortable rolling up your sleeves to solve today's challenges while building the systems that will scale tomorrow. You thrive in global environments and enjoy working across cultures. You're fluent in both Mandarin and English and can confidently partner with leaders across North America and China.What we're looking for8+ years of progressive HR Business Partner experience, with the majority supporting US‐based or US‐market organizations.Experience across both high‐growth startups or scale‐ups and larger,
